The variant received 10 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5

The NM_000021.4(PSEN1):c.1292C>T (p.Ala431Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 7.83). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (no review stars). A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.A431E: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 18155, 2 stars)

Genes affected
PSEN1 (HGNC:9508): (presenilin 1) Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients with an inherited form of the disease carry mutations in the presenilin proteins (PSEN1; PSEN2) or in the amyloid precursor protein (APP). These disease-linked mutations result in increased production of the longer form of amyloid-beta (main component of amyloid deposits found in AD brains). Presenilins are postulated to regulate APP processing through their effects on gamma-secretase, an enzyme that cleaves APP. Also, it is thought that the presenilins are involved in the cleavage of the Notch receptor, such that they either directly regulate gamma-secretase activity or themselves are protease enzymes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene, the full-length nature of only some have been determined.

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 points.

PM1Mutational hot spot or critical domain
Missense neighbourhood hotspot (≥2 P/LP within ±8 AA, OR ≥ 5 vs. background) — PM1; In-domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 13 pathogenic, 1 benign (OR vs. background: 45.0).
PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases
Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD/XL) (threshold 0.0001) — PM2 moderate.
PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue
Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.A431E: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 18155, 2 stars)
PP2Missense in gene with low missense rate
Missense in gene constrained for missense variation where missense is common disease mechanism (PP2); Missense in a gene constrained for missense variation (gnomAD Z-score: 3.106). ClinVar shows strong pathogenic missense enrichment: 151 P/LP and 12 B/LB missense entries (ratio 12.6×).
PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect
Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — moderate evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Moderate).
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar 0-star pathogenic — supporting (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 0 star(s).
